Accidentally stumbled upon the hidden treasure palace of Bukhara

This attraction wasn't originally on our itinerary.

My friend had chosen Bolo Hauz when they took a taxi, and I don't know how they ended up here.

We found it wasn't our destination, but since we were already there, we decided to go explore.

We stumbled upon a surprising attraction!

This summer palace of the last emir blends Russian and Central Asian styles.

The stained glass and mirrored decorations are exquisite, and the refreshing yellow-green hue makes it completely different from other mosques in Bukhara.

The palace displays Chinese porcelain and royal attire.

Although it's a bit far (a 10-minute taxi ride from the old town),

if you have time, I recommend a visit.

It's quiet and less crowded, and the photos are fantastic!

I highly recommend it to anyone tired of the same old mosques.
